Bush's Erratic Behavior Worries White House Aides

Posted on Thursday, September 29 at 11:08 by Patm
Worried White House aides paint a portrait of a man on the edge, increasingly wary of those who disagree with him and paranoid of a public that no longer trusts his policies in Iraq or at home. “The mood here is that we’re under siege, there’s no doubt about it,” says one troubled aide who admits he is looking for work elsewhere. “In this administration, you don’t have to wear a turban or speak Farsi to be an enemy of the United States. All you have to do is disagree with the President.” Full article at http://www.capitolhillblue.com/artman/publish/article_4636.shtml

    Perhaps his "erratic behaviour" stems from his family's propensity for drugs and alcohol:<br />

    September 22, 2005 -- Note on Bush drinking. Much is being made of a recent National Enquirer report regarding George W. Bush's hitting the bottle. It should be noted that the Enquirer has historically hired legitimate journalist stringers who use pen names to mask their true identities, particularly on political stories.<br />
    <br />
    The Bush boozing story is not a new one. The editor has heard of and written about Bush's drinking bouts since 2001. The "choking pretzel" incident had nothing to do with a pretzel but was a carefully contrived story used to cover up a Bush drinking spree that resulted in his passing out on a coffee table in the White House second floor residence and injuring his face. Ditto the numerous cases of Bush falling off a bike somewhere to explain further wounds on his face. Back in college, we used to call that getting "s**t-faced drunk." Apparently, Mr. Bush still thinks he's in college.<br />

    From a source whose FAQ page states:
    "Should we believe what you print simply because you say it is so? Absolutely not. You should read many publications and draw your own conclusions."

    On Vive, this passes for a valid source.

    Just the fact that they warn people to cross check stories is a lot more honest than the mainstream media, whole tell baldfaced lies then, in the next breath, tell you they are the most trusted news sources. No advice about reading multiple sources and, in fact, many tell you NOT to look anywhere else because they have all the news you should know.<br />
    <br />
    And you forgot the rest of the FAQ entry<br />
    ---------------------------------------------------------<br />
    Should we believe what you print simply because you say it is so?<br />
    Absolutely not. You should read many publications and draw your own conclusions. We insist that every story published on Blue have at least two independent, verifiable sources for any and all of the information in that story. We have a good track record but, as with any product produced by human beings, we can -- and do -- make mistakes. But when we are wrong, we admit it. Thankfully, we seldom have to. <br />
    <br />
    Our publisher has a motto that hangs over his rickety, old, roll-top desk: If your mother says she loves you, get a second source.<br />

    So yes, I would consider this a decent source. NewsCorporation (Fox, Skynews, etc), on the other hand, went to court to protect its right to lie.<br />

    Now which source is more credible?<br />
